from a to zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Lately, when I have trouble sleeping because I'm trying to force myself to go to bed earlier, I've been using a rather unusual method to lull myself.

In my first grade classroom, I call the kids to line up and do other things in abc order, cuz it saves time and trouble. Usually, I don't like conformity, but in this case, the kids only have time to learn if they have procedures...

So by now, I know the kids' names by heart, in abc order (actually, I can do it backwards too). So I start saying the kids names in my head as I lay down at night. I got through the list one time, I know that, and I started a second time, but I don't know how far I got.

Is this weird or what?
